Release Sticker:
Both tracks feature on the bands forthcoming studio album "PULP", their
seventh. Recorded earlier this year at Metropolis studios and produced
by the legendary Scott Walker, "PULP" marks a shift away from the
nihilistic brinkmanship of "This Is Hardcore", with the 11 songs
featured, all bristling with optimism and nature, bizarrely. A limited
white label of Sunrise has already been made available to independent
shops, featuring mixes from Fat Truckers and All Seeing I. Jarvis and
Steve Mackey have already started 'Desperate' a loose collection of DJ's
and one mad club night. Desperate has already caused havoc at Homelands
(where the crowd went mental to Sunrise) and Reading festival, check
underground press for forthcoming events.

Girlfriend on the a-side, which instead was left blank.

Release Sticker:
Before you listen to this, please appreciate that we consider this new
Pulp single to be a masterpiece. We therefore ask you to give it an
extra special listen, a deep, complete listen as befits the title track
of the next Pulp album. It is strange, wonderful and vast in scope. It
will scare you because it is so good, yet you will wonder what your
listeners will think of this new dimension in pop music. You must take
the moral high ground "This Is Hardcore" and do not falter. It is as
good as you feared. - S.P.

'Seductive' have been deleted from the inlay card as have most of the
images.

» During the week that We Love Life was released, this interview disc
(dated 25 October 2001) was issued to a few journalists and media types,
presumably enabling them to add a few off-the-peg Cocker quotes into
their reviews. The 35 minute single track Jarvis and Steve interview is
actually taken directly from the Electronic [video] Press Kit issued to
promote the album overseas. They talk about the inspiration behind the
songs and the making of the album, with Jarvis in particular providing
some fascinating reference points.

» Dated 16 November 1999, this is an Island CD-R of some early demos
that Pulp recorded before Scott Walker came on board, though possibly
during the time they were working with Chris Thomas. I expect this was
an opportunity for Pulp to lay down some initial versions of songs after
the Venice / Edinburgh / Co. Cork concerts earlier that year. Unless
you're incredibly lucky, your chances of finding this promo are nil
- I can imagine that the number of pressings were barely in their teens
and were only distributed to record label and management heads, not the
broadcast or print media. Happy hunting!
